SPRING TERM IN RECEPTION 

Welcome back to school for a fun packed Spring term. We hope you have had a lovely time over the holidays and are ready for some exciting learning.

INVENTORS & INVENTIONS

We start off our new whole school topic of ‘Inventors and Inventions’ with a Lego workshop, where we will be able to make our own inventions.

Throughout the term, we will be finding out all about the people who invented many of the things we use today. So exciting stuff!

 

Don’t forget that PE lessons on a Tuesday means that you need to come dressed ready and that everything needs to have your name on it (including your shoes).

We will be continuing with our phonics everyday so remember to bring your phonics folder in on a Monday morning ready for the new sheets for the week. A little bit of practise every day will really help you learn the new sounds. Your diary needs to come into school every day, with your reading book/s.

We are all looking forward to a busy Spring term ahead!

Kind Regards

Mrs Eyre, Mrs Richardson, Mrs Griffiths and Miss Farmery
